Kentucky vs. Florida: Box score, stats and summary feat. Jadan Baugh (Week 8)
The Florida Gators were able to completely dominate in Week 8 and secure a 48-20 home win over the Kentucky Wildcats. The Gators' offense exploded in the first game without Graham Mertz thanks in large part to running back Jadan Baugh's five rushing touchdowns.
The Wildcats (3-4, 1-4 SEC) have some questions as they have been struggling throughout the conference schedule thus far. The Gators (4-3, 2-2) are still in the mix to be bowl-eligible and need two more wins this year to get to that level.

Kentucky vs. Florida Game Summary
The Kentucky Wildcats struggled to get going offensively a bit as they were 4-of-13 on third down attempts and 1-of-5 on fourth down tries. The passing game was terrible as they combined to go 12-of-32 with three interceptions. This is going to be a game to forget offensively for the Wildcats as outside of the second quarter, not much went right.
The Florida Gators went 6-for-12 on third-down attempts throughout the game and were able to move the ball with absolute ease as they had 476 total yards of offense. The quarterback play of DJ Lagway wasn't great but he did enough to help the team dominate.
